PHC Hub and WIR Integration

PHC Hub integrates with the Wisconsin Immunization Registry (WIR) Immunization Information System (IIS) to manage HL7 messages. When HL7 messages are received and validated, the patient and immunization content is stored in a set of staging tables in the WIR database. The WIR HL7 interface daemon (called ADIM) continuously polls the staging tables for new activity and processes, runs deduplication, and merges the incoming data into the existing IIS patient population.

PHC Hub references the WIR database to perform field level validation and translation on coded fields from inbound HL7 messages. Inbound HL7 query requests search the WIR database for qualifying patients and immunization data to include in the response. Users, organizations, and facilities are all defined in the WIR IIS for use in PHC Hub.
